"As soon as the club came to me, it was a no-brainer for me -- I want to stay here, so as soon as they put an offer on the table it was signed as quickly as that," Robertson told Liverpoolfc.com upon signing.

"It was a pretty easy contract for me and I'm sure for the club as well. We both agreed very quickly, that's why it's been done so quickly.

"Getting to know the lads and working with all the staff at Melwood has been a pleasure. The best thing about work is when you love coming in every day -- and that's what I do here. I am glad I have extended my stay and hopefully we have a lot of good days ahead."

"I hope to achieve success as a team over the course of this new deal," Robertson added. "This club demands trophies and too long has probably passed without trophies.

"So I hope to help bring another couple of trophies to this club and help push in that direction because the fans demand it and the club demands it, so that's what we aim to give.

"We came close, of course we have with the Champions League and things like that, but it's about taking that next step and hopefully getting a winner's medal around your neck, whatever competition it is. That is the main aim for us."

In September, Robertson's incredible rise was recognised on the international stage when he was appointed captain of the Scotland national team.

After being released by Celtic as a schoolboy, Robertson began his professional career playing for Scottish third-division side Queen's Park before earning a move to Dundee United in 2013.

He has made 56 appearances for Liverpool as an integral member of the team that currently sits top of the Premier League and reached the Champions League final in May.
